I am a Web Developer who loves finding innovative solutions to tricky problems. Having recently changed careers from teaching to tech, I am eager to secure my first job in the industry. I have a degree in classics from Yale University, and I taught Latin for 16 years until the COVID pandemic inspired me to reconsider my career. My background in classical languages has given me a head start in coding, as my strong sense of logic and ability to “decode” complex conundra serves me well.
I am looking for a job where I can work on a team to build useful and intelligent applications that make life more livable. Fully vaccinated and open to working remotely or in person.
